Originally published October 27th, 2022. I finally decided on a new server to build out and replace the i7-3770 server that I've been running for about 10 years now. The server will feature a Supermicro X10SRi-F motherboard, an Intel Xeon E5-2630v4 10-core CPU, and 64GB of DDR4 memory. I'm thrilled to finally have this rebuilt, install the 10GbE networking, and have more resources available for future projects.
